Agreement to end sale of Chlorpyrifos in California
date:Oct 11, 2019
ositive. California Citrus Mutual President Casey Creamer said Wednesday that state officials had begun to place so many restrictions on chlorpyrifos use that it was getting harder to use anyway. Creamer says he believes the pesticide can be applied to crops without harming anyone when various safety measures are strictly followed.

In announcing the ban, state environmental officials say $5 million is being budgeted to help growers and manufacturers develop safer alternatives to chlorpyrifos.
